Nice one Doc! :thumbsup: :grin: Hot here also! We're experiencing what they call a "Heat Dome," and we're getting sands blowing in from the Sahara Desert. My wife and I are having troubles breathing. The mineral dust creeps into the house through every nook and cranny. Weather Channel - Saharan Dust in the US
Did you ever back up your settings? If so, you can retore your settings and get your custom menu back. Do you have a Restore point from before the menu disappeared? If so, you could restore to that point and your settings should be restored allowing you to get your custom menu back. Otherwise, you'll have to recreate it. Just be sure to back up your settings once you have recreated it. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/69/28/6928565/89690083-e4fc-454d-9704-a6668
Perhaps a Purge & Reinstall will fix it. Follow the instructions here: https://support.stardock.com/space/SHC/1349320768/ObjectDock+purging+and+re-installing
What ever you are using to clean up redundant files is deleting the Activation file. Check this folder for License.sig "C:\ProgramData\Stardock\ObjectDock\License.sig" Maybe white list this file in your maintenance program. Maintenance programs that delete redundant files are notorious for deleting files that are required for other software.
Check this setting.
If you are not using the Start 11 Enhanced Taskbar, then Windows 11 is controlling the taskbar. Make sure "Combine taskbar buttons and hide labels" is set to Always
Are you using the Enhanced taskbar? Are you running the latest version 2.7.3.0 Beta?
In File Explorer Options > General tab under Browse folders, do you have "Open each folder in the same window" selected? In Groupy v2 Grouping settings, under Explorer enhancement settings, do you have "New Explorer tabs should open in the same folder" selected? Are you running Start11 v2, because this sounds more like a Start11 taskbar issue?

My wife's computer (DELL XPS8900 from 2015) recently died. We replaced it with a GEEKOM A7-MAX mini-PC. It included an AMD R9-7940HS processor with 16GB RAM and 1TB SSD with Windows 11 Pro for $587.

I had seen this on other sites, and it is great news for a lot of Windows 10 users. The price of new computers is going up due to memory and RAM shortages which makes the upgrade to Windows 11 unfeasible for those on older computers. I have personally been running Windows 11 for a couple of years now, and with Stardock software it's quite tolerable. Once they finish the "K2" initiative, it should be a lot better.

[quote who="Abisnabidam" reply="3994760" id="541745"] It does seem that in order to disable an Info Pane, you would uncheck where it was first enabled, manually. It doesn't get disabled from the "Disable DeskScapes" option, or from changing backgrounds in Windows. I'll have this logged. [/quote] That's actually not a bad thing. It would allow for using a Windows applied background with the Info Pane, and without DeskScapes being enabled. That is unless Star
[quote who="Abisnabidam" reply="3994755" id="541745"] This I'm not reproducing. If DeskScapes is enabled, the Settings cog will show a "Disable DeskScapes" option. If I click one of Windows' Settings recent images to load a background from there, I see that option in DeskScapes go away. I'm curious if this happens every time for you in this way, and if you are expecting DeskScapes to become disabled in some other way. [/quote] If I select an image fro
Since DeskScapes 2026, the second image in Desktop Backgrounds is always black. I'm not sure why, or if it even matters, but curious just the same. Also, choosing an image here doesn't seem to disable DeskScapes as it did before.
Mostly static for me. I don't keep anything on my desktop except the taskbar at the bottom, with the Recycle Bin and the Info Panel in the bottom right corner. I like to display a new artwork every day. If it's really good, I'll keep it for several days. Many thanks to AzDude, Sed, Lightstar, Richard Mohler, teddybearcholla, Ghzamfir54, cyberslober, and others for their almost daily contributions to WinCustomize. Really enjoying DeskScapes 2026 with all the new toys. <img sr
